Summary Introduction

Adequate information:

Salvage value = $150,000

Cost of equipment (C) = $2,100,000

Fixed cost (FC) = $650,000

Net working capital (NWC) = $325,000

Price per unit = $20

Variable cost per unit (V) = $9.45

Useful life of equipment = 5 years

Sales units (Q) = 145,000

Tax rate (T) = 21% or 0.21

Required rate of return (r) = 11% or 0.11

To compute:

  • The net present value (NPV) of the project.
  • The net present value (NPV) of the project, if the bid price has been changed.
  • The net present value (NPV) of the project, if the number of cartons sold changes.
  • The net present value (NPV) of the project, if the cost of the cartons changes.

Introduction: Net present value is defined as the summation of the present value of cash inflows in each period minus the summation of the present value of cash outflow. In the case of the mutually exclusive project, the project having the higher net present value should be selected.

Tax rate (T) = 21% or 0.21

Required rate of return (r) = 11% or 0.11

To compute: The quantity of cartons per year if it is a breakeven scenario

Introduction: The decision criteria of net present value are that in the case of a single project, if the net present value of the project is zero or positive, the project should be accepted, otherwise rejected.

Salvage value = $150,000

Cost of equipment (C) = $2,100,000

Required rate of return (r) = 11% or 0.11

To compute: Fixed costs

Introduction: Total fixed costs do not change with the change in activity base or unit. In the other words, it remains the same at all levels of production. For instance, rent, interest on loans, depreciation, and so on. These costs have to be paid whether production occurs or not.

Sonja Jensen is considering the purchase of a fast-food franchise. Sonja will be operating on a lot that is to be converted into a parking lot in six years, but that may be rented in the interim for $700 per month. The franchise and necessary equipment will have a total initial cost of $68,000 and a salvage value of $9,000 (in today's dollars) after six years. Sonja is told that the future annual general inflation rate will be 5%. The projected operating revenues and expenses (in actual dollars) other than rent and depreciation for the business are given in the table below. Assume that the initial investment will be depreciated under the five-year MACRS and that Sonja's tax rate will be 30%. Sonja can invest her money at a rate of at least 14% in other investment activities during this inflation-ridden period. Click the icon to view the projected operating revenues and expenses. Click the icon to view the MACRS depreciation schedules. (a) Determine the cash flows associated with the…
